Hello Foothills Rotarians,

Happy Monday!  Tomorrow we have an important presentation about the Colorado River.   Jennifer Gimbel will be speaking to us about the Colorado River and the issues that exist with it's limited water supply.  With the lack of moisture this winter in combination with warmer than average temperatures this presentation will be very timely.   Over the years we have had many great presentations related to water.  Thanks JD for keeping this topic top of mind for us!   

With spring break being next week, we will not have a meeting next Tuesday.    Lisa and Kathe will be attending PETS the next weekend in Loveland.  PETS is the training session that is put on by Rotary and will prepare Kathe and Lisa for the Presidential years.   We hope that you both have a great time at this important event!  

On the 24th we will have another Student of the Month presentation.  This month it will be Kinard Middle School.  Thanks Allison for all of your hard work putting together these presentations!  The week after we will have our offsite at City Hall.  Thanks to everyone who has registered so far.   If you haven't registered yet, here is the link :  Meet with the City Manager! | Rotary Club of Fort Collins (Foothills)

The Unseen Niche: Birds & Airspaces Across North America
The Unseen Niche: Birds & Airspaces Across North America

Earth's lower atmosphere is a vital ecological habitat, home to trillions of organisms that live, forage, and migrate through this space. Despite its importance, it is rarely treated as a primary habitat for ecological study or conservation prioritization, making it one of the least explored environments on the planet. Yet this aerial habitat functions as a global conduit for the movement of biomass, weather, and inorganic materials. Addressing fundamental ecological questions about its spatial and temporal dynamics is key to understanding its role in shaping ecosystems.
